Land Grants and Railroad Entrepreneurship
Thomas C. Cochran
The Journal of Economic History, 1950, vol. 10, issue S1, 53-67
Abstract:
The effects of Federal and state land-grant policies on railroad investment, railroad policy, and regional economic development are too varied to be treated in less than a volume. And such a book would require much research that has not as yet been attempted. The following discussion presents only brief notes on a few of the reactions of railroad entrepreneurs to land-grant policy. These notes were accumulated in the course of research on other problems and are in no instance complete enough to warrant broad generalizations.
